With the current refess cards, this guy is the end game winner IMO. The trouble is managing to survive and build up enough SP to get to him-summon him and put a Gowen weapon on him with his ability and it's pretty much gg. Pack a second copy of this card for insurance in case your opponent decides to one hit kill him with a soul skill.

Efreet has 5 more hp and 5 more base damage but 10 less defense. Since ideally your using their effects Efreets RNG advantage is sort of a wash, the only real other advantage Efreet has is that his effect costs 1 less sp, but seeing as Efreet is also a level higher (and thus costs 1 more to summon and 1 more investment into the sphere) you'll need to use the effect atleast twice just to break even in the sp department.

If we look at their clans, Efreets is better at boosting attack making his effect better, but refess is better at keeping dragon rider alive long enough to use his effect so thats a bit of a toss up too.

Overal I'd say their about even, the dragon rider may feel more annoying just because its so hard to take down but efreet hits harder during the time he is out.

The bunnies of Lavato have special abilities, like 'Action Skill: Make Carrot Disappear.'

i tried packing efreet in my normal file but the results were bleh... that 10 defense point and the fact he comes at level 5 instead of 6 packed with the fact that generating mana with refess is easier makes this guy a loooooooot better

If archer scout is out, efreet can use his skill every turn and doesnt have to risk being on the front row, while at best (SP generator or not) dragon rider is every other turn in a rather SP heavy cardfile. Also, Gowen is going to want higher sphere levels for rankups anyhow, so the level 6 difference is negligble by comparison.

for the sake of argumentation : refess player using dragonrider is usually a player who already has a phoenix on the ground, so technically its a "down cast" where as for gowen its a "up cast" , unless gowen has strategy to summon thunderbolt or fire tornado or go for lvl 9 rank up.

Also refess is a sp producing deck(passaran ,choir boy priest and easter rabbit)--> plz note that when this set was released in JP , will o wisp wasn't nerfed yet -->it was another sp producing card

KP is very difficult to use. Weak HP, requires 2 SP to use... it would be great if its AGI was raised a few points, but more often than not I'm stuck deciding between using it or Light Spearwoman's Action Skill.

Light Chaser is a 5 star... so we probably won't be seeing it in every Refess file.

On the bright side, BCP will give Refess a much needed boost to get out those lvl 3s that are the backbone of a Refess file.
